Too many Christmasses? Time for a drink, or a song about another drink for another Xmas.

“Another Christmas Beer” is the raging country punk recommendation from Fear. If you listen carefully, it might make sense.

Fight the blues with the booze! Merle Jagger honky tonks “I’ll Have Another Drink for Christmas.” It’s fun because… i forget why. There was a list. <hic>

Experimental singing elevates the electric chaos of “Another Drunk Christmas Carol.” DeathBeforeSophistication has a lilting exuberance and a killer backbeat. And–message? Maybe?

More… more… more— Xmas songs about more Christmasses.

Give “Another Christmas” a chance! The Front Porch Country Band bebops their country pop to silly heights (whistling solo!) to win you over.

Gotta replay “Another Christmas 78rpm” from Martin Rivas for lots of reasons: it’s not the Victrola feel you were expecting, it’s appropriately sentimental, it’s almost uncategorizable. Call it prog rock.

Holly Auna gets emo-boy with a fine folk-pop country love song, “Another Silent Night.” Here, the ‘nother is one more notch on the missing you stick. Sad-ish.

Melodic death goth delivers unto us “Another silent Night.” Coincidence? No! This is more gloom, this time with extra scary. 26z whispers us to a frenzy.

Be afraid. The inevitability of the Xmas annual-like promises no escape.

Bob Wire & Chip Whitson fill the air with forbidding in “I Can’t Believe It’s Christmas Time Again.” Folk fearmongering.

Harley Poe scare/delight me with their childlike glee and irascible pop music in “It’s Christmas Time Again.” He might not kill you….

I’m not sure how to feel about Xmas repeating like bad clams…. Please tell me how to deal with it, oh pop songs!

The Guinea Worms beat the hell out of the toy piano with “Oh F*uck, It’s Christmas Again.” Whether their hipster poetry figures out how to unpack their feelings is anyone’s guess. Angsty uncaring pop.

Dwelling on those we lost, Donfiora wants us to cheer up with her tinkly pop “It’s Christmas Again.” No, thank you.

The antiphony of “Merry Christmas Again” from The Young Republic play out the ins and outs of partying for the people. Sigh. Play it again. Fun pop.

Chris Farren (feat. Jeff Rosenstock & Koji) race up and down the rollercoaster of moods with the hard popping “Merry Christmas Again.” I’m sold, i guess.

Will you dance to celebrate the recurrence of Xmas time?

Slow one from Reuben Anderson. “Christmas Time Again” here is a hip grinder not to be missed. Soul slow, man.

The Irish Rovers know a thing or Celtic about the hard party. Refer exhibit “It’s Christmas Time Again.” Now dance.

Sharon Shannon & Wallis Bird get sock hop zydeco with “Christmas Time Again!” Line dance, y’all!

Wave your hands like you can tell time! You know when the year has rolled over you and it’s that time again. You know what it means. You know what to sing.

Drugged out slowly, Paul Sandrone/Christopher Mann croon through “It’s Christmas Again” like they’re getting paid by the minute.

Ordinary Language blues-rock the joy when “It’s Christmas time Again.” It may seem morose, but it’s merry. Count on it.

Heart is counting “The Last Noel” as a marker from the first. That’s a long time until Christmas again. But the plaintive folk pop makes its case.

The season can almost put us in a reflective, nostalgic sadness. Christmas again, whoa.

Steven Eaton is all maudlin all season looking over pictures and reminisces in “Christmas Again.” Jazzy, but more sad pop than blues.

Ryan Patrick and friends mine the childhood fields for their ethereal “Christmas Again.” It’s almost medieval in its look back.

Romance springs eternal, but winters year-by-year. Kimmie Rhodes whispers the country promise of “One More White Christmas” reminding her of every other one without you forever after. You breaking up with him?

Drakeford swings and sways but tinges the festivity of “Christmas Again” with pop bummer-ness. Don’t fret, kids, he’s keeping it forward-pointing.

Howzabout slow downbeat melodies that should remind us of the joy of the Christmas yet again?!

{A moment, if you please: “Hanukkah’s Here Again” as chanted by David Palomo takes the wind out of the candles’ sails while hailing the oil’s well wishes.}

The Ambrosian Children’s Choir make a Salvation Army bummer out of “It’s Christmas Again” from ‘Santa Claus, The Movie.’ Moving, but downward.

Your lyrics say nice, but “Christmas Again” is a disturbing invasion of melody. The Silver Screams mix the reasons for the season. Long repetitive outdo….

Christine Hand wants to wish you a “Merry Christmas Again.” The grassy folk belies the hopes and prayers. Sounds like an elegy.

Oscar Scheller makes a metronome of the music in “It’s Christmas Again.” This pop plodder still means to instill buzzy fun. Be open now.

Like a broken record, we keep hitting the same sentiment: Christmas’s return is good. Let’s roll with it.

Perhaps the hit R+B parody is a cue, by The Van Bloom Brothers sing (?) “Christmas Again” upbeat, yet seem to be scaring us with what will happen.

Classic ska from the ’80s maintains that when it’s “Christmas Time (Again)” we won’t have to go to school. So that’s good. But these orphans take what joy they can scratch from the cold hard ground.

Jason Hostrum uses electronica, sweet girl backup, and an odd downbeat to frolic through “Christmastime Again.” I’m drawn to it’s implicit sardonica.
